Are you yearning for growing green things? If so, you might want to listen to this column about my March garden.
I hope you have a few plants in your home to lift your spirts. Artificial flowers might help too, especially if you happen to kill house plants.
Join me in looking forward to spring.

In this 1985 column I wrote about having a winter thaw in February.
It’s something we can dream about today as we freeze in extreme cold weather in Wisconsin.
The below-zero temps will fade…hopefully soon. Spring will arrive.
Just be patient.
And bundle up!
Because it’s COLD outside.

As I write today, I am looking out a window watching the snow fall. I made an early run to the grocery store, so I’m set for the storm.
This column is an account of one slippery day when driving wasn’t so great. It’s another reason I stay off icy roads except in an emergency.
So if you are also watching the snow fall, stay safe.
Hopefully you won’t need to venture out on slippery roads.

These days people are often in lock-down at home. In this early column, I was looking forward to some downtime.
Being snowbound meant everything else would be put on hold. Listen to this column from the 1983 to see my view when no snow was in the offing.
Tomorrow a winter storm will be hitting here. I’ll be snowbound with my cats, chickens, and dog. That’s fine for a day or two, but hopefully not too long.
It’s 44 days until spring. That knowledge keeps me going.

I love computers, but not video games. I have two left thumbs when it comes to working my way through a video game, though I have no problems with Solitaire.
When we were first married, Bob and I bought Pong. That was about my limit when it came to video games.
I was unprepared for this upgrade gift in 1983 and never caught up.
This might have been an Atari game, at least I remember having one. I probably couldn’t even play Pong today.
